Flying Without Wings @ iFly Singapore

Thanks to iFly Singapore's invitation, we were given the chance to try out their indoor flying experience located at Sentosa Island.

I knew the older kiddos were eager to try out this long long time ago so their wishes were finally granted (Remember, the minimum age for kids to try out the indoor skydiving need to be at least 7 years old and above). I did not join them for the flight on that day for some foolish reason and I regretted it. When hb finally persuaded me to join them, there was no more slot for me unless I joined the next available flight. Oh well...I decided to let them to go ahead and I will definitely come back again with my hb another day (you will know why later...)

See how happy and excited they were...

Flying at iFLy can be done at any time and any day (of course during their opening hours), no need to worry about not being able to fly due to bad weather. Everything is conducted indoor and there's no need to fear about kenna strike by thunders or lightnings.

iFly Singapore has a group of qualified instructors that will guide you during the one hour lesson. I sat in with the rest of the participants during the lesson and did not "eat snake" okay! I tried to remember as much info as possible while the instructor was teaching them all about the safety precautions and what to do during the flight.

You will be taught on how to position your body during flying as well as hand signs that you need to understand and follow when the instructor shows you any of these signs (pictured below). Don't worry, the instructor will always be by your side during the flight although I'm sure most people won't be able to see where or what the instructor is doing :P

There are certain flight criterias to take note, some people are not recommended to take the flight especially people who has dislocated shoulder before, history of back/neck injury, and has heart problem.

~REMEMBER~

1. Dressed in comfortable clothing (no top with collar and girl is not advised to come in dress or skirt)

My Superman, Superboy and Supergirl were fully dressed up from head to toe.

Waiting for their turns to fly...

After the flying session, every participant received a certificate.

YQ showed her graceful move while flying.

Overall, they enjoyed themselves while trying to "fly without wings" like those superheroes. Hb even went for a 3rd round with the instructor (of course there was a $30 additional charge) and he was not afraid at all even though he flew much higher than the previous 2 rounds. The children were a bit little nervous but nonetheless they have done it and I'm so proud of them :)

From their experiences, I was told by them that locking the knee part is very important during the flight and try to close your mouth because saliva will flow out and dirty all over your face, haha! Next time, I will come back and conquer iFly Singapore...just wait for me okay!
